Vacation Inspiration "Family vacation in and around Nuremberg"

Description

The Melter Hotel & Apartments, located right in the heart of Nuremberg’s Old Town, is the perfect starting point for your carefree journey of discovery. Here, historic charm meets modern, well-thought-out design. The spacious, barrier-free rooms and apartments offer plenty of space and the highest level of comfort for the whole family.

Just a short drive away, in nearby Zirndorf, the ultimate adventure awaits: the Playmobil FunPark. Here, children can immerse themselves in life-size Playmobil worlds. The expansive themed areas—from pirate ships to knight’s castles—feature wide, well-paved paths. Thanks to numerous accessible restrooms, spacious relaxation areas, and easily accessible dining options, nothing stands in the way of a day filled with beaming children’s eyes. 

Those who prefer to stay in downtown Nuremberg can spend a fascinating day at the DB Museum. In the spacious exhibition halls, visitors can experience the history of the railroad up close and without barriers. Children’s hearts beat especially faster at KiBaLa (Kinder-Bahnland):  Spanning over 1,000 square meters, interactive hands-on stations and a miniature train  await—perfect for hopping on and riding along. 

For more inspiration and accessibility tips, our staff at the Tourist Information office on the Hauptmarkt and at the Handwerkerhof are always happy to assist you.
